Description

Description (FR):

De nos jours, l’innovation est vitale pour le développement socio-économique. Le paradoxe européen est que l’on observe des difficultés à mettre l’innovation sur le marché alors que le niveau scientifique et technologique est élevé. Le processus de transfert de technologie en Europe fonctionne par conséquent moins bien qu’aux Etats Unis ou au Japon. 2XTRA est une proposition ambitieuse résultant de la fusion de deux anciens projets. Son objectif est de contribuer à augmenter la capacité d’innovation des différents pôles de compétences de l’Espace Atlantique par le biais de l’amélioration des processus de transfert de technologie et la création de nouvelles entreprises. Il profite de la forte synergie apportée par l’augmentation du nombre de partenaires et d’activités, et produit ainsi un impact tout au long de l’Espace Atlantique.
